Question 404790: A factory makes both bicycles and tricycles. Each bicycle has two wheels and three stickers, and each tricycle has three wheels and five stickers. On a recent day, the factory made both bicycles and tricycles. They used 120 wheels and 190 stickers. Hw many bicycles and tricycles were made at the factory that day? All I really need is an equation that I can do the matrices on. I know how to do all the hand work (and have my calculator to check the answer). Any help is very much appreciated!

You can put this solution on YOUR website! A factory makes both bicycles and tricycles.
Each bicycle has two wheels and three stickers, and
each tricycle has three wheels and five stickers.
On a recent day, the factory made both bicycles and tricycles. They used 120 wheels and 190 stickers.

Wheels Equation::: 2b + 3t = 120 wheels
Stickers Equation: 3b + 5t = 190 stickers

How many bicycles and tricycles were made at the factory that day?
